PARIS — She landed her last flip, rose from the mat and blew a kiss to the crowd.

Three years after dropping out of the women’s all-around gymnastics competition at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Simone Biles had completed her floor routine — the fourth and final apparatus. The crowd didn’t need to wait for the score to know she had won her sixth Olympic gold.

Cheers of “U-S-A” reverberated through the Paris Bercy Arena as the crowd got to its feet to applaud the world’s most decorated gymnast — who dropped out of this event in Tokyo after feeling disoriented in the air when performing her routines.
